Recently visited a VA Occupational Therapist for advice on my weakening arm/shoulder since I started having difficulty drying my hair (no problem holding the dryer with my left hand, but using the hair brush with my right hand is a problem). Some excellent stretching/range of motion exercised were recommended, plus use of a light-resistance theraband (red) was recommended for use on a every-other-day schedule. I am not certain the Occupational Therapist has worked with ALS patients. So, - - - any pros and/or cons on theraband use?
